The vinyl-sized golden "CDs" attached to Voyagers are mentioned in numerous books on astronomy. BUT: is there any mp3 available with the actual sounds that were sent there? I guess the sounds of 1970s would sound alien even to us Earthlings by now... Anyway, I really wish I could listen to that.

Long before the internet, there were "RIGHTS" issues. They were never able to secure the rights for all the music.

I guess I'll just have to bring a record-to-mp3 player when I go to capture the voyager probes next month so that you can all have those sounds.
